The interactive workshop will allow participants to consider the role of storytelling and social isolation within the context of data and the digital world, drawing on conversations and reflections from the first Seannachies workshop to think through near future ways of addressing social isolation.

The collider will be hosted by Design Informatics, University of Edinburgh, and facilitated by Prof Jon Oberlander, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh. 6a00d8341bf89d53ef0148c72f063a970c-pi.jpg (JPEG Image, 500 × 445 pixels) Upcoming events by Blether Tay-Gither (Dundee Storytelling Group) for stories, storytellers, storytelling.

Upcoming events by Blether Tay-Gither (Dundee Storytelling Group) for stories, storytellers, storytelling. Hello Ruby. Storying Sheffield | A cloth woven of stories told. Narratively: Human stories, masterfully told. StoryStorm. Elements of storytelling frequently appear in research, from the germ of new project ideas, and the creation of hypotheses, to development through design processes, and towards new products and services. We also use storytelling for communication of our work, to peers, end users, the wider public and organisations.

These stories appear in many guises, navigating tradition forms of writing, practice and critical enquiry, and creating wholly different experiences accessible in a new era of distribution. This one-day workshop will identify and map the range of conscious and unconscious storytelling tools adopted in all stages of research, including design processes (e.g. Personas and Scenarios, Forum Theatre, and Design Fictions) and artifacts (e.g. Visualisation, Internet of Things, 3D printing). Workshop Aims. StoryStorm. Call For Participation - StoryStorm. Important Dates March 10th, 2014: Submissions dueEXTENDED DEADLINE! March 21st, 2014: Submissions dueMarch 31st, 2014: Participants notifiedJune 22nd, 2014: Workshop held in Vancouver, Canada The very act of communication is fundamentally an act of storytelling and so the stories we fashion about ourselves to make sense of our life experiences are intrinsically linked to our identity and sense of self (Bruner, 2002), nation, and shape our understanding of the world.

Stories are now embedded in objects and accessible in a new era of distribution, and furthermore present in all aspects of research, i.e. in communicating our work to peers, end-users, and to the wider public as a way of understanding and relating their own experiences and goals. Applications We welcome applications from multidisciplinary researchers and practitioners across HCI, UX, design, art, psychology, design ethnography, and from the worlds of design, art, film, photography, or storytelling.

Interview with Donald Smith, Director of the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh | View from the Pier : Travel, Photography, Discovery. Peer to Pier: Conversations with fellow travelers I’m pleased to share May’s “Peer to Pier” interview with Donald Smith, Director of the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh. I came across the Centre while meandering down the Royal Mile from Edinburgh Castle at the top of the Castle Rock down to Holyrood Abbey.

The Centre is located about halfway between these historic monuments in a building that encompasses Edinburgh’s oldest house, which was once home to Mary Queen of Scots’ Catholic goldsmith and Scotland’s controversial religious icon, John Knox. Donald Smith, 56, is a storyteller, playwright, novelist and performance poet. Donald Smith has produced, adapted or directed over fifty plays and published a series of books. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Donald Smith as much as I did. Think global; act local.Patrick Geddes, 1854–1930 Meg: What do you see as the significance of storytelling?

Donald: Storytelling is a first of all a form of memory. Donald: Go up a mountain. Three Channels Terrence Gargiulo. Dundee Storytelling Group, Blether Tay-gither - stories, storyte.
